* '''Software Description:''' Openfire is an XMPP server. It is configured through a web-based admin interface and used in enterprise, military, and government environments.
* '''Brief explanation:''' Openfire currently lacks the session management protocol described in XEP-0198. This provides acking of stanzas across the session, and also the ability to reconnect a session that has been disconnected by network failure. There is no existing infrastructure for such a capability, and the approach needs to consider that Openfire has clustering support; a session may reconnect to a different node within the cluster.
* '''Expected results:''' Each deliverable should be presented as a pull request on GitHub, ready for merge, with tests where appropriate:
** First, simple acking-only should be implemented, with no resumption. This should handle the case where a session is lost, redirecting unacknowledged stanzas to offline storage or other sessions as appropriate.
** Next, resumption should be implemented. There are a number of strategies for this, and it is not entirely clear which strategy will be most successful.
* '''Knowledge Prerequisite:''' Reasonable knowledge of Git, Java and XMPP. Communicating with the team and the XSF Standards SIG will be essential.
* '''Difficulty:''' Hard
* '''Implementation Language:''' Java
